The Political Ontology of Martin Heideggerby Pierre Bourdieu
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:“Bourdieu is a sociologist with a remarkably wide range of competences, and his short book on Heidegger, published before the recent revelations of the philosophers devoted commitment to Nazism through and beyond the defeat of the Third Reich, is a brilliant contribution to what is now called ‘contextualization (i.e., of Heideggers thought). Richard Rorty dismissed Heideggers Nazism on the ground that it had nothing to do with his philosophy; no reader of Bourdieus book will be able to continue to believe this for a moment.”—Common Knowledge “Bourdieus book is the single most illuminating contribution to an understanding of the social and political meaning of Heideggers work. It is extremely stimulating in its methodology, which is an outstanding model of a sociological approach to philosophy, and in the light it casts on the current debate over Heidegger and Nazism. Bourdieus book stand apart from the other books and articles on the political implications of Heideggers philosophy.”—Jean-Joseph Goux, Brown University Table of ContentsPreface; Introduction: skewed thinking; 1.
